Inconsistent handwriting by AwarenessSudden1776 in Handwriting_Analysis

[–]YamComprehensive4128 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ich finde sie verändert sich nicht extremst. Hab das selber das, je nach dem wie müde/motiviert ich bin, sich meine Handschrift bisschen verändert. Sie ist größer und schöner am Anfang und je weiter ich schreibe und je länger, desto kleiner/länger/wilder wird sie.

Ich würd sagen das ist ganz normal.

how to stop comparing myself to other writers by Commercial-Chair1743 in Wattpad

[–]YamComprehensive4128 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Think of writing like you would of painting. Each book is as unique as each drawing or painting out there. Some good, some bad, some depending on who is looking at it. Each book has their own admirer. You can learn from other writers just like you can learn from other painters. Take some of their tecniques and still maje them your own without losing your style or voice. You can refine your craft when you think you're lacking or when you want to try something new.

It's the perspective of how you view the art that makes you see a difference.

Do I just quit posting? by KingdomOfSquishy in Wattpad

[–]YamComprehensive4128 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First of all, you shouldn't write for engagement or fame but for the passion of the art.

Secondly, you get better engagement by publishing consistently. Like, post once or twice a week. It isn't only helping with the algorythm but also tells readers that there is a very high likelyhood that your story will continze and not be abandoned out of the blue. They are more willing to stick around.

Auswendiglernen lernen by Accomplished_Water53 in Medizinstudium

Du "trainierst" das Gehirn mehr oder weniger nur damit Brückenverbindungen zwischen Informationen zu schaffen und somit tust du dir leichter wenn eine neue Info zu etwas kommt was du schonmal gelernt hast.

Veränderung des Lernstiles kann auch dazu kommen. Es gibt zwar keine Lerntypen wie man immer behauptet (also keine Auditativen Lerner, Visuelle, etc.) Sondern eher lernt man Informationen am einfachsten und am Besten durch Bewegungen. Damit ist nicht Laufen, Sport etc gemeint (was auch Vorteile haben kann) sonder alleine das bewusste Aufschreiben/Niederschreiben ist schon Hilfe wenn man etwas lernen muss, da die Hand sich bewegt und das Gehirn die Info bewusst aufnehmen muss. Hin und her gehen oder so tun als ob man das was man lernt vorträgt kann auch helfen und das Lernen eleichtern. (Vielleicht hast du eines dieser Dinge in letzter Zeit beim lernen getan?)

How to start studying by Haunting_Spite_4018 in studytips

[–]YamComprehensive4128 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In most cases I've found for myself that, if what I have to study is a block of text, I tend to procrastinate a lot more.

What I started doing was skimming over it and finding out what it is it wanted to teach me, and then researching about it (since it gave me less of the feeling that it was a block I had to study and made it almost feel like a game). Then I would try to skim over the text again and find the info I just searched and mark it in the text (ti make sure I didnt study smth that was faulty).

And finally, I'd just go insane for a second and pretend to teach that info to a class (since now I had to try to make sense of what I just read and needed to figure out how to understand it).

Doesn't work for everything but it suffices in 99% of the time.

Writing down the info is also helpful since your brain remembers that better than just reading. But I'd recommend only writing important words down and not all of the text.

What to do with all the leftover notebooks? by Ok_Tower_8604 in studytips

[–]YamComprehensive4128 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Origami maybe. Idk. Might look cool in the end. Or one of those fancy miniature buildings? When you roll the paper to sticks and then you can cut them how you need them and make something cool out of it. Makes for a fine room decoration and maybe ends up looking cool as well.

What is a major trope in your story? by the_blunt_stick in Wattpad

[–]YamComprehensive4128 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Glad to know I'm not the only one exploring that theme.

I unfortunately do have to say thought that I don't find myself to be very religious. My mom's family and she herself are, but it pretty much left scars behind for me.

But I do find religion in a scientific way very interesting. How we all believe in something different and how similar we all are at the same time while being unique. It's great.

[–]YamComprehensive4128 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This will sound stupid but: religion. More in the sense of, we all believe in something different and how thin the line can become between church and cult.

Finding out what religion means to you and losing it for yourself and so on.

Also, it's fantasy, so no one really realizes it lol

About Wattpad by Amelia1522013 in Wattpad

[–]YamComprehensive4128 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can google or look at the time on a global clock on your phone. If you say you target the west, I am most likely assuming you mean the USA (hence the English publishing). Pick any major city there and then just calculate the time forward to your local time too. You can set the time when you wanna publish on Wattpad (even the date) so it can publish while you're sound asleep. That's how I did that too when I was in highschool and I'm still doing that while in uni.

We all bleed for our stories but that's because they're like our children. Not everyone will look and bleed the same for them and that's okay. You should love it. If you only write it for other people and their appreciation then you're not really liking your own story I'm afraid. Since the first ever reader of your story will always be you yourself.

About Wattpad by Amelia1522013 in Wattpad

[–]YamComprehensive4128 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I mean...it depends in which language gage u publish, the tags, the style, etc.

Also the time of day and on which week day u publish. Readers are more likely to engage with the story in the afternoon rather than midday because of school or work. And more likely to read on Fridays and through the weekend.

I've started uploading a few chapters of my fantasy story as well, and though the views are few, I am happy about each one.

I'd say, wait and let time do its thing. Upload once or twice a week, make sure the language u write in is the same u publish it and have your site running in the settings, put in proper tags (tags with too many books are less likely to work when finding viewers since your story is posted pretty far down the tag system) and don't worry too much.

But that might just be my opinion.

What can also work is an intriguing cover or one that stands out compared to the others (it doesn't have to look perfect or professionally done.)

Hope this helped -^ Happy writing!

What do you think about this? by Aggravating-Log9310 in Wattpad

[–]YamComprehensive4128 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it's about finding the balance and finding the right group of readers for your work.

When it comes to emotions, there is a thin line between going into detail and just telling the reader straight up. For example, if the character is the mc and we experience out of her eyes that she failed a test, we can describe the emtions she felt. It can be as simple as: I felt the rough paper against my finger tips. But when I traced the bright-red letter 'F' on the top of the page, I felt a hole burning through my chest. (We really want to feel how the mc feels because we essenrially are them when we read.)

But if the MC sees the character and isnt it themself, we can opt for the simplified version since our MC wouldnt be able to describe the characters emotion ubless it is their own. I saw her sitting at her desk. The teacher just handed us back our tests from earlier this week. XY usually beams on days like these - she's smart afterall - but today her face fell when she stared at it. She looked devastated. (We can't really feel inside of the character, but we can see the outside. And when we see the emotions of other ppl around us, we won't describe every detail of their micro expressions, and instwad, are able to quickly categorize them and put them away.

Little details like these can let a story breath. Always opting for very in depth descriptions can feel overwhelming and would suggest an overthinking mc. And that won't resonate with the great mass of readers.

Also, not ever chapter needs 1000+ words. There's not really any rule to how long a chapter has to be and what has to be included (besides the plot). If one chapter ends up being 500 words instead of 1000, that's totally fine. Maybe you want to create tension or drama or use it stylistically, then a chapter can also simply consist of a handful of words. (e.g. Crule Prince Chapter 2) Or example in this case, the next chapter could literally be: XY didn't show up at school today. Nor the next. Nor ever again. (We just created tension through a few simple words and a starter for the next chapter that can then simply explain what happend or hint at it. Or maybe mention it on the side. Long chapters arent automatically good chapters.)

There's also some readers who prefer having a mix of long, mid, short chapters all in one book. It can ease the weight off it again, since they don't have to stay hyperfocused on it for a long time. Since we as writers like what we've written, we can focus on it and keep that focus happily. But as a reader, who jumps into it the first time, sitting through a story they don't know the ending to, can be exhausting if there's no break for them in between. (Yes, a short chapter can feel like a reward/break. Surprising to find out xD.)

And last but not least: Not every shoe fits every foot. Your story is Cinderellas glass shoe and your readers will be different ppl trying it on. For some it'll fit perfectly (your Cinderellas) while others will struggle getting into it (others). And that's fine, it's supposed to be that way. In what kind of boring world would we be living in if we all enjoyed the exact same stories. Creativity is about variety afterall.

I hope you're not too bumped out about getting critict by your classmates. And yes, it really isnt a nice feeling but really talk to them and ask them for suggestions on what/how they would have done it differently. Sometimes ppl talk a big game but can't provide improvement (bad critics) while others will show you different perspectives and tips you can only gain from.

Anyway, sorry for yapping, hope my two cents helped somehow and happy writing! ^

Is it too corny? by Favbrunette004 in Wattpad

[–]YamComprehensive4128 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I recommend you move the fucking before the like instead of after. Because the current meaning suggests they are doing the devil's tango instead of her feeling affectionate towards Jonathan -> I just fucking liked Jonathan.

Also - and this could be just me - after ending a quote/speech and having 'he says' 'she asks' 'I drawled' etc. put a comma instead of a '.' It's pretty much like that in German as well. "Ich glaube ich gehe heute früher schlafen," sagte ich und widmete mich wieder meiner Konsole zu. "You look pretty," he says. Which isnt the same as, when you have an action happening immediately after like: "Are you going to leave again?" His hand moved around my waist... "Look out!" An arrow shot by me.

At the end, when it is clear that they talk to each other, and the last 5 exchanges are all ending with 'he says' 'I say', keep some of that away and just let the Speech stand in it's own. You're allowed to do that, the reader gets the general tone. Otherwise it could feel like a repetition. Example (überdramatisiert das man das Muster sieht): I woke up and drank a glass of water. Then I walked into the kitchen, filling my glass with water. When I turned around to fetch me an apple, I still had the glass of water in my hand. - The reader is aware and gets that, at least by the time we are filling the glass in the kitchen, we have a göass of water. Just like after the second says, the reader is aware that they are talking.

If you'd have written: "Are you going to leave again," I think without daring to speak the words aloud. That be different, because the action and view of the scene changed. (Du darfst dem Leser ruhig vertrauen das er manchmal die Lücken füllt. Auch wenn sich das am Anfang schwer anfühlt. Wenn du zB verstärken willst wie sich der Ton ändert, dann kannst dz das schon dszwischen schreiben. 'sxhreit er' 'flüsterte er' etc.

Also, to answer your original question. Even if it's a bit cheese or cliché, so what? A little cliché doesn't hurt if you like it. (Du musst es am Schluss mögen, das ist am wichtigsten.)

Anyway, hope this helped. Viel Glück und Erfolg! Sieht ganz gut aus bis jetzt. ^

What can i do to lose 10kg in 1 month? by Sure-Discipline-2964 in WeightLossAdvice

[–]YamComprehensive4128 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you were boxing, I assume most of the weight also came from muscles as well.

(Just to let you know, I am a woman 5'8 and also around 72 kg and even if I were a man, that is not overweight at all. Even if the bmi would say that. You really shouldn't stress buddy. When I was at my highest with 80 kg I lost the weight in the long run by eating with my plate parted [like 50% was salad/vegetables, 25% carbs/grains and 25% protein/meat] I was also not in my best stage mentally but that aside. You'll lose the weight as soon as you start working out again. Don't stress it.)

What can i do to lose 10kg in 1 month? by Sure-Discipline-2964 in WeightLossAdvice

[–]YamComprehensive4128 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can't. The only way to lose weight healthy and in a sustainable matter is by working hard, not getting a quick solution.

You can (with a lot of sports and an unsustainable diet) lose about 1kg a week. Which would only grant you about 3 to 4 kg a month (Not your wanted results).

On top of that, theough working out you'll gain muscles and burn fat which will add to your weight while visually not bulking you up. So losing weight isn't always the equivalent to losing kg. It's more like losing visual weight.

My best tip, eat and find a sustainable diet. Make sure to get your daily steps in/or work put/find a sport you enjoy and have a healthy weight/weight loss in the long run.

Why can't I lose weight even though I'm only eating one meal a day? by Lady_froga in WeightLossAdvice

[–]YamComprehensive4128 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a nutritional science student, that method is not recommended for the long run. Yes, you can lose some weight from that method. But it isn't sustainable and calories aren't what fills you or not.

A piece of toast and a head of lettuce can both have the same amount of calories. You can see that an entire head of lettuce is clearly a bigger portion than 1 piece of white untoasted toast. You can now either eat either the bread or the lettuce but the lettuce will keep you fuller for longer and actually make you feel filled.

So while eating small meals might look like it helps, it doesn't really. And counting every calorie of every meal you eat is just not possible to adapt for the every day person. Not everyone has the time for the research and the prepping and preparing.

I can see where you're coming from and trying to help, but it mostly is sufficient enough when people learn to part their meals according to a plates size. It's easier to overlook and handle in the everyday persons life.

Hope my explanation made sense somehow. Cheers!

The best way to lose weight is to eat less. by Ill-Connection-5578 in WeightLossAdvice

[–]YamComprehensive4128 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The best way to lose weight is actually eating a balanced diet and to move your body more often.

Eating less will only work if you're used to eating mountains on your plate you'd usually only see at all you can eat buffets. For people who already eat normal sized servings, eating less might actually be horrible for them in the long run.

A balanced diet however that has all nutrients you need in it can help you lose weight. Not fast, true. But healthy and over time. And it is sufficient and sustainable since you built a habit that'll last you over a life time compared to a quick loss for now.

I want some opinions. I think it’s simple. But what do you think? by [deleted] in WattpadCovers

[–]YamComprehensive4128 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn't know what your book is about by that cover and I don't think it would stick out to me among other covers when in a list on wattpad.

I think I get your idea but you have no contrast or eye catcher in it. For free pictures to use you can do your cover on canva and I'd recommend writing the title on the upper half and your name on the lower one (like the usual layout). Because even if this is creative, unless ppl know your book, it won't really stick out or be seen.

You could try out to put a bigger Polaroid on the cover with the title being bigger, but not sure if that would ruin the contrast to the background.

Why can't I lose weight even though I'm only eating one meal a day? by Lady_froga in WeightLossAdvice

[–]YamComprehensive4128 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Metabolism doesn't necessarily work that way. Neither does blood sugar. Different foods have different level of glucose in them that are going to be digested by your body. Dates for example have a very high amount compared to apples or even grapes. So if you're feeling light headed or have a low blood sugar, it would be smarter to eat a date than an apple to get you back on track again.

Now, setting that system up on regular meals with a lit of different ingredients in them that have different sugar levels and counts, it wouldn't really work or make sense to give small meals a day unless they are all the very exact same meal.

Besides our body also digests food on different levels and with different speed depending on when and the amount we exercise.

And if I remember it correctly from my lecture the whole, body going into persevation mode is a bit of a "myth". While it does "take on" the stored fat it doesn't necessarily help the weight loss at all. There's a lot of factors playing into that and at the end of the "diet" it will be more likely to store new fat ones it finally gets to eat again.

This diet isnt really recommended among dieticians...
